Get the kids, grab some lunch and tune in tomorrow... Renown sculptor/mask maker Zarco Guerrero reveals the awesome power of the mask to transform in this unique one man storytelling event for children. Touching on such issues as Mexican-American and indigenous heritage, the wisdom of elders, and the current pandemic, Zarco presents a light-hearted solo performance that mirrors the mysteries of the heart in a myriad of familiar cultural faces.
Zarco Guerrero has exhibited and received international acclaim and many prestigious awards. He received the Japan Fellowship from the National Endowment for the Arts, The Arizona Governors Arts Award, the Artistic Excellence Award from American Hispanics in Higher Education and the Esperanza Teacher of the Year Award among many others. He won the 2012 Zony Award for his ground breaking work as a mask maker in Childsplay's 2011 production of "The Sun Serpent." In 2015 he was recognized as a Master by the Southwest Folklife Alliance. The New Times named him "Best Storyteller" in 2016. In 2017 he was chosen to design the Light Rail Station at Baseline and Central Avenues in Phoenix

Borderlands' ensemble member Adam Cooper-Terán (ACT) presents a curated set of media from his expansive repertoire of video art, performance, and music spanning nearly two decades. The show is a meditation and response to these pandemic times we are living in, combining new and unseen works addressing the ongoing struggles in these borderlands, and the world at large. This is not passive TV, it is an indictment of the mainstream narrative, remixed to provoke and inspire audiences. Warning: there will be images of flashing lights and some disturbing imagery regarding child detention centers.

The Richmond Art Center is the largest visual arts center in the East Bay, delivering exciting arts experiences to people of all ages who reflect the diverse richness of our community.
The Richmond Art Center originated in 1936, when local artist Hazel Salmi, who worked for the WPA, traversed the streets of Richmond, CA with a suitcase packed with art supplies, eager to teach art to anyone interested. Today, everything we do at the Center continues to breathe life into Salmi's original vision: That within every person lives an artist.
